I’m aware that I’m the architect of my time and it
depends on me how magical I want my days, months, and years to be. Following my
monthly challenges, I’ve decided August to be my Month of being More
Organized.
Only
through organization, you can find more freedom, i.e. more free time. I have to
get more serious about my calendar. I need to take the ownership of my life.
When you manage your time, suddenly you leave with more free time. I use the Productivity Planner from Brendon Burchard.
The
following is based on the High Performance GPS course by Brendon Burchard which
I attended last month. I have three projects on which I’m working now. For each
one of them, I have chosen the five major steps which will lead me to the
accomplishment of my dream. One of the projects for this month is to be more
persistent. There are projects in all areas – 1. My character 2. Interactions
with others 3. Growth
After
my morning ritual, I sit down to write my goals for the day, more specifically I
fill in the Productivity Planner and try to follow the
weekly focus – the eight blocks of time which Brendon
suggested.
1. Weekly Reviews
- To measure your progress. You can’t manage something you don’t measure. So
usually Sunday evening or Monday morning, I reserve time for doing weekly
reviews. In this review, I write the answers to two special questions – 1. What
did I enjoy and learn during the week? 2. Is anything on the calendar in the
upcoming week that doesn’t matter now? (So I can pull it out and in this way,
have more free time)
2. Schedule Free Blocks, i.e. no work – at least one hour a week – time for
yourself!
3. Family + Significant
others
4. Schedule Time to Create. Check every 90 days - what did
you create? When you create, your business grows.
5. Workouts –
Where are they in your calendar? You must have them! Physical exercises will
give you more energy and patience, more stamina so you can deal with
stress.
6. Research Time –
Look for information that will help you to advance. If you want to be a serious
player, update your knowledge, get more insight, study your
competitors!
7. Team touchpoints – See your supportive system
8. Catch-up blocks – Schedule time each night, set the timer, e.g. 30 min –
What must happen by the end of this week so I can move forward to my
dreams?
Own
your time! Time is precious! Live your life with elegance! You are in
charge!
These
are some of my notes from High Performance GPS course by Brendon Burchard. I’m
trying to follow them and live my life with more strategy, preparation and
discipline and most importantly to be consistent in my efforts and habits.
Habits are the wheels to success.
